It Ain't Necessarily So (from Porgy and Bess)
Aretha Franklin
Letra
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
De things that yo' liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so
Now li'l David was small
But oh my
Yes David was small
But oh my
He fought big Goliath
Who lay
Lay down and dieth
Yes David was small
But oh my
Did you ever hear about Jonah?
Helived in a whale
You ever heard about Jonah?
He lived
Lived in a whale
And he laid his home
In that fish's abdomen
Yes Jonah he lived in a whale
To get into Heaven
Don't snap for a seven
Live clean
And don't have no fault
And take me
Oh I takes dat gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble
But with a little grain of salt
Methus'lah lived
Nine hundred years
Methus'lah lived life
Nine hundred years
But tell me who
Who calls that livin'
When no gal'll give in
To no man
What's nine hundred years
That's why I say
That it ain't
It ain't necessarily
It ain't
No
Necessarily
It ain't
It ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily so
